Tonelada
Definición: Una tonelada es una unidad de peso y masa. En los Estados Unidos y Canadá, la tonelada, también conocida como tonelada corta, se define como 2000 libras o 908 kilogramos. En el Reino Unido, la tonelada, a veces denominada tonelada larga, se define como 2240 libras avoirdupois o 1016 kg. La tonelada, definida en el Sistema Internacional de Unidades (SI) y también conocida como tonelada métrica, se define como 2.204,623 libras o 1.000 kilogramos.
Historia/origen: El término "tonelada" se deriva de "tun", un término que se aplicaba a un barril grande que podía contener entre 175 y 213 galones imperiales, podía pesar alrededor de 2000 libras y podía ocupar aproximadamente 60 pies cúbicos o 1,7 m 3 de espacio . Aunque todavía se utilizan varias definiciones de la tonelada en ciertos países, la tonelada métrica, o tonelada, es la definición preferida de la tonelada.
Uso actual: La tonelada larga se usa en el Reino Unido junto con otros países que aún usan el sistema imperial, la tonelada corta se usa principalmente en los Estados Unidos y la tonelada se usa en todo el mundo. Aunque tanto el Reino Unido como los EE. UU. y algunos otros países todavía usan otras definiciones de la tonelada, la tonelada es la forma legalmente designada de la tonelada para su uso en el comercio.
Kilogramo
Definition: A kilogram (symbol: kg) is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI). It is currently defined based on the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant, h, which is equal to 6.62607015 × 10-34 in the units of J·s, or kg·m2·s-1. The meter and the second are defined in terms of c, the speed of light, and cesium frequency, ΔνCs. Even though the definition of the kilogram was changed in 2019, the actual size of the unit remained the same. The changes were intended to improve the definitions of SI base units, not to actually change how the units are used throughout the world.
History/origin: The name kilogram was derived from the French "kilogramme," which in turn came from adding Greek terminology meaning "a thousand," before the Late Latin term "gramma" meaning "a small weight."
Unlike the other SI base units, the kilogram is the only SI base unit with an SI prefix. SI is a system based on the meter-kilogram-second system of units rather than a centimeter-gram-second system. This is at least in part due to the inconsistencies and lack of coherence that can arise through use of centimeter-gram-second systems, such as those between the systems of electrostatic and electromagnetic units.
The kilogram was originally defined as the mass of one liter of water at its freezing point in 1794, but was eventually re-defined, since measuring the mass of a volume of water was imprecise and cumbersome.
A new definition of the kilogram was introduced in 2019 based on Planck's constant and changes to the definition of the second. Prior to the current definition, the kilogram was defined as being equal to the mass of a physical prototype, a cylinder made of a platinum-iridium alloy, which was an imperfect measure. This is evidenced by the fact that the mass of the original prototype for the kilogram now weighs 50 micrograms less than other copies of the standard kilogram.
Current use: As a base unit of SI, the kilogram is used globally in nearly all fields and applications, with the exception of countries like the United States, where the kilogram is used in many areas, at least to some extent (such as science, industry, government, and the military) but typically not in everyday applications.

How to Convert Ton (metric) to Kilogram
1 t = 1000 kg
1 kg = 0.001 t
Example: convert 15 t to kg:
15 t = 15 × 1000 kg = 15000 kg
